Tracheostomy in general:

A tracheostomy is an opening in the front part of the neck that is surgically made and leads to the trachea. This hole helps patients breathe better. It is usually done for a short period of time, but in some cases, it may remain for a long time or even permanently. The duration the hole will remain depends on the reason it was made and the general condition of the patient.

Our airway carries oxygen to the lungs while removing carbon dioxide from them.

The airway includes:

• The nose with the nostrils
• The mouth
• The larynx
• The trachea
• The bronchi

The tracheostomy offers an alternative way for air to reach the lungs bypassing the nose and mouth.
